Describing and Characterizing Potential Lemon Shark (Negaprion brevirostris) Nursery Habitat in Mississippi Coastal Waters
… and regions across the study area. Kernel utilization distribution demonstrated a reduced use area during colder temperatures with movements restricted to the southern region of Cat Island. Through network analyses and community detection algorithms (CDA), younger individuals were observed …

Determining Critical Internesting and Foraging Habitats for the Conservation of Sea Turtles in Gabon, Africa Using Satellite Tracking and Stable Isotope Analysis
… internesting and post-nesting movements. Gridded utilization distribution (UD) home range analysis of tracking data revealed that the entire core habitat occurred in the Komo Estuary and overlaps with an important area for artisanal fishing (79% overlap) and commercial shipping traffic (58% …

Evaluation of estimators of population size based on simulation techniques
… the individuals possessed a bivariate normal utilization distribution with σₓ = 1 and σᵧ = 2, a random spatial pattern, and various trapping behaviors. Simulation experiments of 10-sample mark-recapture experiments were performed. The results indicate that large negative and positive sample …

An Evaluation of Life History Parameters and Management of White-tailed Deer (Odocoileus virginianus) in the Red River Valley of Northeastern North Dakota
… home ranges and mean 50% and 95% kernel utilization distribution home ranges (HR). The 50% and 95% seasonal home ranges for resident deer (n=46) were 1.0 and 5.3 km2, respectively. Seasonal 50 and 95% HR estimates were as follows: 0.7 and 3.7 km2 for summer migrating deer (n=17), 0.7 and …

Integrating Research into Conservation: Using Satellite Telemetry and Population Monitoring to Inform the Management of Hawksbill Turtles in Brazil
… nesting hawksbill turtles were investigated. The utilization distribution by tracked turtles overlapped with Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) and the potential threats, offered insights into broader marine conservation strategies. The second chapter advances our understanding of marine turtle …

Elephant space use in relation to ephemeral surface water availability in the eastern Okavango Panhandle, Botswana
The movement and distribution of elephants can be influenced by environmental factors over time (Foley, 2002). Examining how features in the landscape such as vegetation productivity, water sources and anthropogenic activities drive the movement of elephants can help in understanding patterns of …

Nest Predation by brown-headed cowbirds (Molothrus ater)
… insight into how they encounter potential hosts. Utilization distributions (UDs) are among the most applicable methods of quantifying space use. In one of the first practical applications of a multidimentional UD that includes time as a dimension, I show that cowbirds were significantly more …

ECOLOGY OF THE SWAMP RABBIT AND EASTERN COTTONTAIL IN BOTTOMLAND HARDWOOD FORESTS IN SOUTHERN ILLINOIS
… volume of intersection (VI) over the entire utilization distribution. Median conspecific CA overlap was higher during W/S than S/F, with mean CA overlap proportions of 0.20 ± 0.21 (range: 0−0.87) and 0.10 ± 0.18 (range: 0−0.73) respectively. Median conspecific VIs also differed between …
